Faculty
- The Campus Master Plan project team is asking all interested students, faculty and staff to share their experiences and impressions of the campus through participation in an interactive mapping exercise. Your responses will help inform the project team’s efforts and help shape our campus into the future.
- Amy Allen is the first author on “Evaluation of Low-exergy Heating and Cooling Systems and Topology Optimization for Deep Energy Savings at the Urban District Level,” recently published in Energy Conversion and Management.
- The AB Nexus Research Collaboration Grant program announced its inaugural round of grants totaling $625,000 for novel research projects integrating expertise from the CU Anschutz and ñ campuses.
- Next summer, renowned chemist and researcher Seth Marder will join the Renewable and Sustainable Energy Institute as director and will begin joint appointments at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory as a senior research fellow and at ñ’s Department of Chemical and Biological Engineering and Department of Chemistry.
- The Material Characterization Facility – operated within Colorado Shared Instrumentation in Nanofabrication and Characterization (COSINC) service center – recently relocated to its permanent home in the Sustainability, Energy and Environment Laboratory building on east campus.
- Researchers at the ñ have released findings that will impact the future of reconfigurable photonic devices and will lead to new possibilities for nanophotonics and microresonators.
- Frost quakes are not particularly rare, but they are harder to observe than traditional earthquakes.
- Researchers at ñ are collaborating to develop a new kind of biocompatible actuator that contracts and relaxes in only one dimension, like muscles. Their research may one day enable soft machines to fully integrate with our bodies to deliver drugs, target tumors, or repair aging or dysfunctional tissue.
- An international team of researchers including Professor Michael Toney has developed a new technique for precisely tracking the movement of ions within batteries, a discovery that may have far-reaching impacts on how safe and efficient batteries are developed. They published their findings in Energy and Environmental Science in September.
- Researchers at the ñ are developing a wearable electronic device that’s “really wearable”—a stretchy and fully-recyclable circuit board that’s inspired by, and sticks onto, human skin.
